Re: Donnie Avery?

He probably will never stay healthy. I went to a home game when we played the 9ers and avery was wideopen and cuaght a 20yrd pass, wide open and hand nothing but green turf around him. He took about 4 steps and got tackled by the turf monster and didnt get back up. I mean the guy just fell and was literally out for the game. He hurt his arm or something..... Guess that turf monster was one tough cookie

Re: Donnie Avery?

Let's go forward, not backward. We are establishing a new culture, one that hopefully avoids signing "males nurses" (constantly injured). Avery was injured more than he was healthy for us. I wish him no ill (no pun intended) will but we are looking for different type players.

And while I see another thread on the subject, NO I don't think we should sign Otogwe. Either we are ready to put the Devaney era behind us or not and if not then Jeff Fisher will regret his decision to come here. This is the attitude that made us a losing team for so long. Onward and upward fellow Clanners!

I hope Rams draft two more WR's this year. Not slow possession receivers this time. Last year after drafting Salas & Pettis DE ,Spags said we drafted the guys that had the best hands in college and yards after the catch.

Has nothing to do with potential it has everything to do with health which he can't stay healthy. that's like saying bring Mark Clayton back... one of the biggest things is realising when a player is done.. and he is done!
